Hello, I am working with a rich text editor. I can't use it with textarea html tag. But it works with div. Problem is I can't validate a div with laravel. As div doesn't support name attribute.
You cannot submit a div contents as part of a form submission, so at some point, the editor will expect to copy the div content to a hidden field which is part of your form.
The documentation for the editor should tell you this.
Tell us which editor it is if you want more guidance.
https://editorjs.io/ I am using editor.js but it's not working with textarea tag.
That editor is not going to suitable for you if you want html.
Its API returns json describing the content. You then have to parse it into html.
If you read this thread https://github.com/codex-team/editor.js/issues/676 there are some solutions mentioned, including https://github.com/MotivoZwolle/editorjs-data-converter
Here, I mention using quill.js which may be a better option
